Spring Winds

The Spring winds announces themselves
with whispers, groans, and creaks through the tall trees.
Shaking out the last dead leaves of Winter;
making way for rebirth.

Stand outside a moment, in the dark night.
The wind is calling.
Ushering urgent messages into your core,
as quickly as she blasts winter cobwebs away.

Allow yourself to be shaken out,
for the roots always hold firm in the spring.
Allow her bitter cold gusts pierce the very core of your heart,
like jump leads – a call to action.

Spring is here she bellows across the fields.
Her force sees no obstacle too great,
as she urges waves to rise high and topple,
A great power carrying endless potential.

The wind announces her formless self through every thing of form.
Her invisible path leaves a trail of dancing trees.
She is birthed from difference, yet she sees none.
Stand outside in the wind she calls…..

“Stand outside in the wind,
I bring the message of hope.
I carry the promise of sunbeams and longer days,
And I whisper in your ear come out and play“.

“Winter is done.”

Heart Connection….

Heart connection

2016956k2ft78lbw2

I see you, I’m with you, I support you, I believe in you; I love you…

The smallest thing that means the most in our lives is to feel connected to those we love.

Love,

Andrea

“We cultivate love when we allow our most vulnerable and powerful selves to be deeply seen and known, and when we honour the spiritual connection that grows from that offering with trust, respect, kindness and affection.

Love is not something we give or get; it is something that we nurture and grow, a connection that can only be cultivated between two people when it exists within each one of them – we can only love others as much as we love ourselves.

Shame, blame, disrespect, betrayal, and the withholding of affection damage the roots from which love grows. Love can only survive these injuries if they are acknowledged, healed and rare.”
Brené Brown, The Gifts of Imperfection: Let Go of Who You Think You’re Supposed to Be and Embrace Who You Are

Allow Peace In…

Where there is pain let there be peace…..

To all of those amazing strong hearts that are feeling pain right now. If feeling peace feels too hard right now and you doubt your strength, then go amongst peace if you can.

Find a place that calls you; be it a church, a forest, a beach or waterfall; music or silence….

Stop thinking and let it all absorb into your heart.
The universe is holding you safe…. stop a moment and let yourself feel safe and at peace and loved once more.

Allowing yourself to be….. that is where you remember your strength.

In memory;

To Love Unconditionally…

To love unconditionally,
……………….is simply to love.

art by Emma Plunkett

art by Emma Plunkett

To feel loved unconditionally is to be loved:

when you are, or you aren’t,
Whether you do, or you don’t,
If you should, or you shouldn’t,
When you are right, and when you are wrong,
Whether you are here, or there,
And whether you stay; or go….

Souls bound by Love

This poem was written on April 25th, 2014. It is not about anyone and it is about everyone.

It describes loves lost, and lost loves yet to re-find one another in this lifetime.

It speaks of the independent soul, strong enough to wait for that special one, yet lonely waiting for the soul connection. The heart waits to reawaken precious Divine Love.  Only the strongest souls keep searching; because they sense what is ahead. Nothing else feels alive. Yet faith is so hard to keep when there is no evidence. Trust is blind and sometimes the eyes want to see ….

That love is only around the corner, trust in this and know that you both will dance again.

x Andrea

Til we meet again,
I will whisper in the winds.
Touch your face with love,
And feel your beating heart.

I know in my soul
What the mind cannot comprehend.
That you feel this too;
We shall meet again…………

I place my hands often on your heart;
It feels sad and heavy.
I surround you with love;
Love deeper than the oceans blue.

My arms embrace you with Light
As you sleep.
When you are peaceful,
I blow star-dust into your dreams.

Only planets know the depths of my love.
Only stars the timeless duration of our connection.
Only our souls know,
When we shall next dance.

The Love of my Heart

The love of my heart
For you is as certain as the morning bird-song
Sang from the tree tops at dawn
In melodies only hearts know.

The love of my heart
Is as forever
as the blue skies are endless
Touching mountain peaks and into galaxies far.

The love of my heart
beats as surely as my first breath
to last
It is the breath of my life.

The love of my heart
Surrounds you at all times with a rainbow of light
That mingle and dance and paint a tapestry
Of you in my life.

The love of my heart
Holds your heart in mine
All times I am there
Surrounding and loving you.

The love of my heart
Beats strongly for you
Flies with you
Dreams through you

Loves you

Magic Lies Here…..

Thirsty Falls 9

Magic Lies here……in Thirsty Falls Guest Farm

Come rest a while; with us.
Pull a chair out into the suns warmth,
And let the breeze caress your tired body.

Slow down. Stop, melt into your surroundings.
Close your eyes and drink with your senses,
And immerse your awareness in Natures symphonious cacophony.

Thirsty Falls 1

Hear the birds announce their flight path.
Bees about their business.
And trees reveal the winds journey through.

Thirsty Falls 5

Rest a while Dear Child.
Become the flow of the stream,
The light in Suns warmth,
And timeless in earth’s grounding.

Thirsty Falls 13

Magic lies here.
It connects you to the depth of your being,
In moments of nothing,
It all becomes something.

Let your heart song sing again.
Your inner voice speak in your silence,
And Mother Nature embrace you safe.

Be at One,
Feel at Peace,
And leave Remembering.

xx
Love,
Andrea

My promise to my love

paulo 2

When we fall in love with someone we want to protect our loved one from harm and never ever let them experience pain again. However to do so is to stifle their own path and growth. So in light of all this and my thoughts around how it is that to love is to empower; I put my thoughts into a pen and paper and allowed them to flow.

As is typical for me, this contemplation is an extension of my own life; with the desire to help all to trust in love and life and the beautiful flow of the universe as she supports you on your journey.

My promise to my love:

Gratitude

Beautiful Nature Screensaver 1.0

I cannot express in words the full extent of how my gratitude to the Universe feels within me.
And of her comfort in the form of the loving people in my life now.
Nature and her nudges and daily embrace in the smallest of things;
I notice them now and they are wondrous!
Spirit and her messages and intuitions,
The magic of dream world,
The power and clarity in my visions,
The awe I have for how everything supports my every step forward.
Love in every crevice and corner, smile and moment.
When you let go and trust; you don’t fall and then hope to find support;
you instead fly with the winds of time under your wings.

Coffee in Autumn

By Andrea Cullen

My Heart sings with joy
As I watch the sun burst rays
on Summers’ last rose.

Autumn dew and Summer birdsong
melange in that surreal dance of
Summer dusk and Autumn dawn.

The swallows dart high and low in country lanes;
they will fly away and return once more.
A reminder of dreams deep in my heart.

I feel filled with Gaia’s loving embrace,
and Her never-failing sustenance.
Endless nudges that all is well;
She is conspiring with me.

Great dreams were inspired this Summer
In the energy of Ireland’s lands.
Deep healing in her womb woke memories of time.
It is healed, forgiven; a nations consciousness awakening.

Walk with me Great one and All.
Whisper guidance in Poplar’s dancing leaves.
Hold me steadfast on my Path,
Pure in my heart,
And joyful in my steps.

Allow me to see all preciousness in each moment,
And feel gratitude in my heart every night as I journey into dream world.
The gift in each moment is a treasure
I cherish.

Thank you
